 Tried activating the mesh in joyride 2567.  No go.

 Neighborhood View shows two circle icons.  Hovering on them, their labels
 both say 'olpc-mesh'.  Why *two*?  (NM 0.6 showed *three* concentric-
 circle icons - one for each of the supported mesh channels.)  The palettes
 of the two circle icons say 'Connect'.  Clicking an icon causes it to
 pulse, and its palette to say 'Disconnect' -- eventually the icon stops
 pulsing and its palette reverts to 'Connect'.

 Frame shows two greyed-out circle icons.  Hovering on them, neither gives
 a label.  [Would one be reserved for a wireless AP connection, and the
 other be reserved for a wireless mesh connection ??]  Their palettes say
 'Not Connected'.  Clicking causes the palette to vanish.
